Many people are concerned about x-rays when they first go to a chiropractor. Here at Back to Wellness, P.C. we don't take x-rays. There are three main reasons for this:

1. We feel that we have a responsibility to limit the radiation patients are subjected to.
2. We feel that we have a responsibility to provide the best services if x-rays are needed. If we feel the need for x-rays we will refer you to an Imaging Center. We do this because the people there take and read x-rays, for pathology, on a daily basis. When it comes to reading x-rays for pathology they are the experts, not us, and we're not afraid to admit it.
3. We feel that we have a responsibility to provide the most accurate services we can. X-ray takes a static picture of your body. You are a dynamic and ever changing/moving organism. After being adjusted once x-ray is no longer an accurate representation of the condition your spine is in. It will still show general structure, the presence or absence of fractures etc., but it can not accurately show specific misalignments of the spine.
